WHERE WILL LIFE TAKE YOU?

As the time grows near for Josy to go to Kindergarten and Johnathan to start his Senior year I think about all the changes that are about to happen in both of their lives and in mine. I am still very nervous about Josy starting kindergarten but I think I am NOW more worried about Johnathan. He is growing into a fine young man but with that comes A LOT more independence. I am confident that he will continue to make wise choices with his life but it scares me. The world is soooo full of things to cause people to stumble. We have always tried to raise him in a way that pleases God and he is such a good boy!!! But the simple fact is....I am NOT ready for him to be a SENIOR!! Where did the time go? It seems like yesterday I was rocking him to sleep and reading him stories. It is such a bittersweet thing for your kids to grow up! Of course I want him to grow and be independent but I miss the times when he was young and innocent and thought his mommy had all the answers(even when I didn't). Now he knows that I am strictly a mom that does make mistakes and yes I mean lots of them and that I have been saved by the same grace that God bestowed upon his life. And with that I do find comfort. Comfort knowing that I will not always be there to make the decisions for my Johnathan but I know that God will and he loves him even more than I do... Yea hard to imagine but that is the kind of God we serve!!! I guess I do not know what the future holds for me or my children but I do know who DOES!! Now people that is something to be thankful for.......
